"Owner showed up with a small crew and a crazy new piece of equipment. Excavated down below my foundation and to the septic tank. Came into the basement and jackhammered the floor. Removed all the old terracotta pipe inside and out. Installed all new PVC pipe all the way down to the septic tank. Put gravel down to protect the new pipe. Poured concrete in the basement to close the floor back up. Only took one day to get the new pipe in. Came back the next to close the ground and floor up. Great experience, basement no longer smell like sewage."

"Pete & his crew took our extremely sloped, wet yard, and created a dry, level area that is perfect for us. We never thought the yard could or would look this good, but Pete has a great vision and also has the ability to make it into a reality. Pete is honest, and exceeded our expectations. We could not say enough about the positive experience we had with Pete & his crew. Highly recommend."

"I had put the project off for a long time because I was on sabbatical.  They said it was not a problem and did the job about four or five months later.  They came and did what I asked them to do.  The guy was a little bit hesitant to do it from the inside and wanted to do it from the outside.  I took him downstairs and the place inside. He got the work done.  He got to a point where he said that he saw a problem.  But there was no problem with the sewage flowing through.  I asked them to give me an estimate for what might be their charges.  But I never heard back from them."

"Omnipro and Greg the project manager exceeded my expectations! They were on time, professional and when the job called for more than what was on our agreement, they just did it without asking for more money or time. They did what was right to stabilize my hill. Additionally, the project was challenging as there was a small space to work and a huge hill. They took on the challenge! It looks so fantastic. They scraped up my existing paver patio a little and instead of just turning the bricks over they put in all new.... I also got a whole new paver patio - WOW! These guys are a top notch class act without high prices! I love love love my backyard now! They rock! I will be selecting them again if I need any more work - walls, landscaping, hardscaping."

"Had a lot of stuff that had built up over time in both places. Got rid of all the yard waste (and old kids gym thing) from the back yard as well as a bunch of random clutter from down in the basement. Took only about 2 hours for both and I was happy with the price. Overall, very well done and would recommend to anyone in need of some help."

"We just moved into our home in Oct. 2015.  Since that first weekend living there we realized we had a plumbing issue.  We contacted our warranty co. and they sent out a plumber.  He cleaned out the pipes outside as best as he could but would not go inside and see if there was any problem under the house.  So we called a different plumber who came out and did some minimal work from inside but did not resolve the issue.  During this time we filed a claim with our insurance co.  They wouldn't do anything for us b/c the word "roots" was involved. Again our issue was still there and water was leaking all over our house. Under the kitchen cabinets when running the washing machine and would also leak as far as into the dining room carpet. While taking any shower the water would come up from the floor under the tub where the drain goes into the floor and was leaking all under the tub and reaching as far as our bedroom into our carpet and on the bathroom floor. When it rained water would appear in our duct work and sit there for days until it evaporated.  We were at a total loss as to what to do other than to go after the seller.  During this time I decided that we needed to stop showering b/c the water was going everywhere and causing more problems. We contacted our warranty co. again and they sent out another plumber and again he did nothing for us to resolve the issue.  At the end of January I ran into a friend at church who had just started working with this company and told her what we were experiencing.  She told me that they could help and to get her all the information I could on the situation.  I am so thankful I did!!  Mark and Gary were at our door step the very next evening.  Camera in hand and ready to resolve the issue for us.  AND they did!!! They determined that it wasn't roots it was a sewage clog and had nothing to do with roots.  Because of them we are no longer having issues with our pipes and are in the process of getting our house back in order with the renovation process with the insurance co.   I can't thank Mark and Gary enough for what they have done for us during this whole process!!"

"Steve was thorough in his discussions about the project. I'm usually pretty detailed about projects and think things through. Steve would bring things up that I hadn't thought of and my wife and I appreciated the time he took. He also considered that there were several options for our design to choose from and he walked us through the pros and cons. For example, the way that lights would be spaced on our wall between windows and doors was not technically even, but looked good given the spacing of those openings. Also, he showed us a couple of options for the size and spacing of slats for our roof vent so we could preview it before it was created.
Steve does not run a big company, so you get really personalized service. He is part of the projects as they happen. This also means that his availability to do projects varies. But, he is proactive about his availability and once he starts a job he and his team are on-site until it's finished.
This was our second or third project with him. At the beginning, he installed a sliding door and a pair of doors with sidelights that open onto our patio. These were installed about five years ago and we love them. In fact, he has done almost all the outside work on our house over the last five years, including unanticipated problem areas. Would highly recommend Steve for a job."

FAQs for water or fuel tank remove projects in Pittsburgh, PA

There are several reasons why you might need to remove an oil tank. In some areas, local regulations require tanks to be removed after a certain period. Leaking tanks can pose hazards to drinking water and the environment. Plus, many municipalities won't allow property sales until an inspection confirms the oil tank is safe.

One option for disposing of an oil tank is to have your removal pro take it to a dismantling yard or salvage yard for recycling. If a salvage yard isn’t an option, you can contact a local landfill or a local oil tank removal service for help finding a proper disposal location for your tank. Typically, you’ll need to show there’s no sludge or residue in the tank.

A leaking oil tank reveals itself through increased energy bills and a noticeable oily sheen on water surfaces, which signals a malfunction. You may also experience strong oil odors and observe stained grass and deteriorating vegetation near your property. These clear warning signs demand immediate professional evaluation to protect the environment and secure your property’s safety.

Yes, states mandate soil testing during oil tank removal to detect hazardous pollutants that harm the environment. This testing confirms that no soil contamination exists. Certified specialists collect soil samples to meet regulatory requirements and ensure property safety. Conducting these tests protects water quality and the structure’s integrity while immediately triggering any necessary remediation measures.
